Formation of monodisperse bubbles in a microfluidic flow-focusing device

Abstract

This letter describes a method for generating monodisperse gaseous bubbles in a microfluidic flow-focusing device. The bubbles can be obtained in a range of diameters from 10 to 1000μm. The volume Vb of the bubbles scales with the flow rate q and the viscosity μ of the liquid, and the pressure p of the gas stream as Vb∝p∕qμ. This method allows simultaneous, independent control of the size of the individual bubbles and volume fraction of the dispersed phase. Under appropriate conditions, bubbles self-assemble into highly ordered, flowing lattices. Structures of these lattices can be adjusted dynamically by changing the flow parameters.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
